Aside from that, today was a good Fourth, despite the lack of fireworks in CO. I also had to explain to my Bible-Nut grandpa that the sun is, in fact, a star.

My ex-gf had gone to a series of psychotic dumbfuck schools so she didn't know that either until she was in a real college and took an astronomy class.

To clarify, do you think they were psychotic because they were Catholic or in addition to being Catholic?

She said dumbfuck, not Catholic. From the looks of it, they might be Protestant schools. The Vatican has a whole section dedicated to astronomy, and is much more up to date on science than other sects. +
